Stayed 2 nights in this wonderfully appointed, renovated home during a visit to Franklin with my best friend before she moves out of state. Great location, beautifully furnished and all the comforts of home!
This was a comfortable place to stay for the weekend of my granddaughter’s wedding. We were close to downtown and local restaurants and not to far away from the wedding venue.
Great location for exploring the Franklin and Nashville area. Hosts were so easy to communicate with and the home is very comfortable. Overall fantastic experience.
Property is great for our needs; close to relatives and to downtown area. Excellent for multiple couples.
Property owners have always been super accommodating and super responsive.
We traveled from the state of Washington to be with family in Franklin. We loved the house, the hot tub, and surrounding area. Will definitely stay again if future needs require another visit.
Such a cozy 3 bedroom close to all the fun downtown restaurants and shops. The owners thought of all the little details that make this a place you want to come back to!
Our weekend was full of family, friends, & football. Wandered around Franklin, a charming town and a few restful nights sleep in a quiet and adorable blue house known as The Dragonfly. We would love to visit again in the future.
We had an excellent visit in Franklin for our annual family gathering. The home was well equipped and very comfortable. Convenient to lots of cute spots in the downtown area and not far from the freeway to explore the rest of Indianapolis! We enjoyed the snacks and spent some quality family time. Thanks for sharing your home!
Stayed at the Dragonfly for five nights while attending the Marc Adam’s School of Woodworking. Just what we needed, a quiet neighborhood and a clean well equipped house. Beds were very comfortable.
We stayed at this sweet home for 12 nights! I wish I could give 10 ’s. Everything was perfect and just like indicated on the site. The host is really awesome and I will tell you he is super responsive with an example: short story locked ourselves out and arrived back late from Dtr’s wedding reception well after 1030 PM. I messaged thinking I would hear back in the morning and we made plans to stay with another friend….30 minutes I get message with an alternative way to enter. The entire stay was awesome, kitchen well stocked, beds comfy with great linens, bathrooms clean and plenty of great towels. The Dragonfly has everything needed for a great stay - book it!
We had the best time in the cutest VRBO! The hot tub was so fun to sit out in and visit. The house was clean adorable and just so cozy. Lots of lovely blankets to snuggle up with while we watched a movie and just visited. A short walk to the square where there was so many fun things to do! I would recommend the Dragon Fly Inn for anyone wanting to have a delightful little get away.
We were in Franklin for an annual extended family Christmas. Three of my children (2 with spouses) and 1 grandchild stayed with me at the house. The bedrooms and bathrooms were adequately sized and well stocked with blankets and supplies. The kitchen was small but well equipped. Unfortunately we did not have time to use the hot tub.
Cozy historic home within walking distance of the downtown. Great outdoor space and plenty of room to lounge. Perfect for a weekend getaway with friends.
We would give ten stars if it was possible. We loved being able to walk so many places! The house was charming, the bed was comfy, and the kitchen was well stocked with anything you might need. The hosts were easy to communicate with!
